I have just downloaded the beta version of world time and it all appeared to have loaded OK. but the next time the computer was started world time just hung on the splash screen telling me it was starting clocks.

only way to quit it is through task manager. Any one got any suggestions. windows XP home SP1

I have the same problem. I got rid of the Tokyo clock from data/wtclocks.wtd.  WorldClock 6.0.0.941 starts in the Status Bar.  I can right click on the icon in the Status Bar and invoke the functions listed in that menu.  If I left-click on that icon, the frame for WorldTime appears, but the clocks are not filled in.  The Task Manager shows that worldtime.exe is not responding.

Funny you should mention that. I had exactly the same problem, same environment. I spent about an hour tracking this down, and found that there was a corrupted record in the clocks.wtd file. I deleted the corrupted record (with vi, although Notepad would work also) and the problem went away.

I then did some additional testing, and found that adding or editing the "Toyko" clock (either of them) caused the corruption to the data file.

So I have gone back to release 5.5 for now.
